AYURVEDIC THERAPIES
All treatments are specifically tailored to the needs of each client to make sure they receive the approach that works best for them.
Time and time again I have seen the incredible healing power of Ayurvedic Therapies, and feel they truly encompass the key to activating the Self Healer that resides within.
-
Abhyanga
Abhyanga is the signature treatment of Ayurveda. It stimulates the lymphatic system to support the body’s natural self-healing mechanisms. This treatment rejuvenates the nervous system with warm medicated oil generously & lovingly massaged into the tissues, moving cellular waste to the lymph sites, processing dislodged toxins.
-
Shirodhara
Shirodhara is known as the Third Eye Oil Pour. This treatment synchronizes Alpha and Theta brainwaves, transporting you into a meditative state. This deeply nourishes the nervous system as the mind slows down and releases accumulated stress. It supports stopping hair loss, lessening migraines, easing menopause symptoms, and a variety of nervous system disorders.

Bliss Therapy
All the benefits of Abhyanga are amplified by combining the soothing and meditative effects of Shirodhara. As the oil coats your Crown Chakra, bringing you into a deep state of peace, quieting the mind. This therapy connects deeply with the inner wisdom of your Higher Self and experiencing a pause or reset in your nervous system.
The session ends with an herbal steam tent to open and purify the channels of the body, driving the medicinal oil deeper to aid in lymph movement & drainage.
"Consistent bliss is what comes to mind when reflecting on my Bliss Therapy treatment with Mónica. From start to finish, I felt held, supported, and most importantly, safe. Mónica gracefully explained, administered, and executed a wonderful session. I was absolutely floating afterwards."

At one of my first visits with Mónica, I received a treatment called Netra Basti from Mónica. I suffer from an eye condition called cornea dystrophy, which can be extremely painful and debilitating. My first time receiving this treatment was in February 2019, and I recently received the treatment again this April. I have not experienced any extreme pain since receiving this treatment. My eyes feel so healthy, moist, and radiant— compared to the usual dry and gritty feeling that I am used to. I was nervous at first since it was such a new experience to me. When I arrived, I was quickly put at ease with the calming atmosphere and the other relaxation techniques that Monica implemented into the treatment. I am so grateful to have learned about Netra Basti, and feel hopeful for my future of having to deal with this eye condition for a lifetime. It is an all-natural and organic experience, and I would recommend this treatment to anyone who suffers from any eye conditions. This will definitely become one of my regular eye treatment remedies as it is known to repair and heal the cornea of the eyes and leave them feeling more comfortable than ever before. I have also learned that ghee is not limited to the eyes!!”
